− | + | Some historian from the Empire, Diordorus-or-something, commented that "Vister women fight like the men and are nowise inferior to them in bravery'. I think he underestimated our women-folk! | |

Sure, I don't say the Vister men are worse fighters, this wouldn't be true. It's just that women don't participate in all fights but major ones, but when they do, beware! Their ferocity is virtually unmatched. I suppose that they know that if they fall, their children might very easily die. Much as he tries, a man is not that good in taking care of infants. It really makes them nasty fighters... well, that, or they just chose to fight in the days when the feel like fighting, if you get what I mean! Given that on those days, an average woman might make you hurt using nothing but words, imagine what she'll do when she uses an weapon on top of that! | Sure, I don't say the Vister men are worse fighters, this wouldn't be true.

All in all, in the mountain, women take care of the children and house, men hunt, take care of the herds, and fend off the first attacks, should an enemy appear. When the tribe is threatened, though, we all fight as one, for both the daughters and the sons of the Lion share the same ancestor spirits! | All in all, in the mountain, women take care of the children and house, men hunt, take care of the herds, and fend off the first attacks, should an enemy appear.

That's why we bury both men and women with their personal weapons. I see in the Empire, many women don't even own weapons. The first few months, I believed they are just hiding them better than we do at home... now I just find it weird. | That's why we bury both men and women with their personal weapons.
